That's reason enough for all of us to learn more about it and give it some thought. I have no interest in any kind of mining but if I can accept payments where every one causes Chuck Schumer to give birth to a fully grown cow without benefit of epidural, it might be worth it. The only thing I can't figure out after reading all the techie mumbo-jumbo is how do I turn bitcoins into cash so I can deposit them in the bank...

But as I read more about Bitcoin I'm reminded of the debacle of the NORFED Liberty Dollar.
